Thursday Tolkien Thoughts: What Does the White Flag of the Stewards of Gondor Signify?
The Ruling Stewards of Gondor declined to use the standard of the kings and instead used a simple white flag. What’s the significance of this choice? Whatever it means, it definitely isn’t surrender.

HOW T
how-tolkien-handles-innocence-and-its
The loss of innocence is a fairly common theme in literature, and wouldn’t you know, Tolkien handled it too! As with most things, he manages a nuanced take showing both the positives and negatives of innocence and its loss, if you know how to read his tale.

DISPE
dispelling-myths-about-the-nazgul-and
My video on why Sauron couldn’t recover his Ring after being defeated in the War of the Last Alliance (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKzuKSus8FI) generated several comments about the Nazgul and the Nine Rings that show many people have what I think is a mistaken view of how those Rings work, but which also raise some additional questions worth addressing, so let’s dive into some Ring lore!
Apologies for video quality—was having technical issues but had to get something out!

The 2021 Summer Seminar held by the Tolkien Society got a lot of attention because of the topics. Was the fuss merited? Here are my thoughts on one specific presentation—Cordeliah Logsdon’s “Gondor in Transition: A Brief Introduction to Transgender Realities in The Lord of the Rings”.
Here is the specific presentation I’m addressing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1BYu4NOIv8&list=PLoyx2jXs6Le_MelDj_rJsmiYSYQBeVYxQ&index=1
Here’s the playlist for all the videos in the seminar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1BYu4NOIv8&list=PLoyx2jXs6Le_MelDj_rJsmiYSYQBeVYxQ

TOLKI
tolkien-geek-reviews-“the-rings-of-3
This episode was significantly better than many others in the sense that it was engaging, kept my interest, and things really happened. But there are still logical issues and the lore breaking goes so far as to destroy much of the underlying logic of The Lord of the Rings….

FARME
farmer-giles-of-ham
Perhaps Tolkien's only foray into outright comedy, Farmer Giles of Ham is humorous on multiple levels, from its nature as a parody to the many language-based jokes Tolkien includes in the story. It's a short, whimsical read very different from what most of us know Tolkien for, and well worth picking up. I recommend picking up this compilation: https://www.amazon.com/Tales-Perilous-Realm-J-R-R-Tolkien/dp/0547154119/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1477875238&sr=1-4&keywords=farmer+giles+of+ham Unfortunately I can't seem to find an edition with commentary to explain the jokes that require more learning, but this at least has several other stories worth having in your collection.

thursday-tolkien-thoughts-why-is-there
When first encountering the Ring Poem, which lists groups of 9, 7, 3, and 1 rings, we might be tempted to wonder why there isn’t a group of 5, and what race they might have been made for, but this is based on a simple misconception regarding the making of the Rings of Power.
